A world class rivalry is born...

[Eff Pandas]

Call me crazy, but I suspect Ward will be difficult to contend with after this W. I highly doubt Ward vs Kovalev II happens next. I'm almost positive there will be a Ward/Kov co-featured bouts HBO card or Kovalev will fight & Ward will sideline himself again probably over money ****.

Also I think I've heard people saying this fight completed Ward HBO contract so if he doesn't re-sign with HBO or there are drawn out talks thats going to present problems with making a rematch so idk how much of a rivalry this can all end up being & more importantly how soon they can fight again, but boxing needs some rivalries so I'm rooting for being wrong & these guys fight sometime next summer-ish.

Kov has said he fully intends to exercise the rematch clause and ward said he will honour that
So fingers crossed

Your Opinion is like Toilet paper, Whip my a$$ with it and flush it down the toilet lol

Your Bias so your Opinion means NOTHING on this forum, you're as emotionally attached as Lampley you probably cried yourself to sleep after the fight

im not bias, i said kovalev woud win a decision cause i thought ward wasnt as good as advertised. me saying hes not that amazing isnt cause i 'hate' him, its cause i dont think hes that amazing. Theres fighters i like a lot less than andre ward. But you are right that i shouldnt be telling you what to enjoy or not, was being an ass, so my bad.

If everyone is so sure Ward won, let's do the next one in Russia, with a Russian Ref and 3 Russian judges.

It is only fair.

Well kovalev said he underperformed due to mental issues

He probably learned Friday night that his contract with Main Events included performing cunnilingus on Kathy Duva one time & she called it in that night finally.

Thats all good, but there are a ton of wrenches that could be thrown into the engine for Ward vs Kovalev II. I suspect Ward will want more money for a rematch & I think he was likely overpaid for the first fight with his $5M paycheck. I believe his contract with HBO is up so will that get re-signed at all or anytime soon? And if he doesn't re-sign with HBO how likely is it that HBO will let Kovalev fight off of HBO or how likely will it be that the new party who signed Ward would let him fight off there network? I'm rooting for a part II, but I'm not optimistic about it at this point.

Yep. He has no contract right now. Theres going to be tons of issues that need to be negotiated.
